I have been having a great time driving the bus and just tinkering with the hundreds of little things that one must do when you own a 40 year old car. There is always a little clip that needs to be replaced or a seal that needs to be removed and reinstalled, the list never ends. I have been spending a bit of time working on a hard cover photo book of the bus project. I found a site that makes this pretty easy to do. It's called
Blurb. I haven't bought anything from them yet, so I can comment on their quality, or service, however, their software for making the book is pretty good and it's free. I will be sure to let you know how it comes out. I thought this would make a nice thing to have sitting in the bus when I take it to shows.
As a part of that project, I needed some pics of the bus in it's finished (current) state. I headed out to the park and shot a few pics before the weather gets too cold. Have a look.
Some plans for next summer include a new awning that is a bit more authentic looking than my Walmart pop-up, Maybe a roof rack, I have the front beam adjusters on order so I can lower the front to match the rear, a new stereo, and maybe a new air cleaner and some stainless push rod tubes. Then it's on to some more shows. My brother in law and I are talking about making it to Road America this coming June for the big show there. Sounds like a good time. Maybe I need a tow dolly or a trailer?
